The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there is no link to the video, we can comment on the following things.

The importance of critical thinking in the workplace is that it allows the use of reason and logic to analyze complex work issues trying to find the best solutions.

Critical thinking has helped many employees to come up with great ideas to make things move in the workplace.

I remember one time that during the end of the year meeting, management shared a complex issue with the Customer Relationship Management tool. It was not a tech issue, but a service issue and client retention.

The general management asked us to develop critical thinking on this issue and many ideas came up that were so smart and on time.

The way I would show a potential employer that I have

solid critical thinking skills is by sharing different ways to understand a situation and offering different alternatives, clearly explaining the advantages and disadvantages, regarding time, cost, and opportunity.

For me, the best online resource that helps people increase critical thinking skills is "The Foundation of Critical Thinking." This website is full of good information, experts, and innovative concepts.
